Turtle Trader ES Data

[elitetradernyc]

Hey guys, can you help me with this? I found this site with free S & P Index data its in text format, I tried to upload it into NT but it came back with an error. Is this data in the correct format for NT? http://turtletrader.com/hpd/

Hello EliteTraderNYC,

No, this data is not going to be in the correct format to import into NinjaTrader.

The file name is not in the right format and all of the data will need to be reformatted as well, including removing the "OpenInt" as NinjaTrader does not have this.

The data looks like this;

"Date","Open","High","Low","Close","Volume","OpenI nt"
03/23/1998,1193.50,1193.50,1193.50,1193.50,0,0
03/24/1998,1202.80,1202.80,1202.80,1202.80,0,0

You would have to have the data formatted like the following:

19980323;1193.50;1193.50;1193.50;1193.50,1
19980324;1202.80;1202.80;1202.80;1202.80;1

Here is a link to our Help Guide that has all of that Data formats that NinjaTrader accepts to import that you may view.
